Now she'll need to reach out to other people to help her save her town from destruction. Good thing she's a robotics genius!

Book Description
The study of nineteenth-century American literature has long been tied up with the study of American democracy. Just as some regions in the United States are elevated to stand in for the whole nation—New England is a good example—D. Berton Emerson argues the same is true for American literature of the nineteenth century; a few canonical texts overrepresent the more motley history of American letters. Emerson examines an eclectic group of literary texts that have rarely, if ever, been considered representative of "the nation" because of their unseemly characters or plots, divergence from dominant literary trends of the era, or local particularity. These are his "literary misfits," authors and texts that show different forms of egalitarianism in action that existed outside and even against the dominant liberal narratives of American democracy. Emerson's unique contribution is revealing these texts and the people they represent as rich with political knowledge. This knowledge, he argues, finds its most potent expression in the local. Such texts show us a different kind of democratic politics: one that is egalitarian, disorderly, and radical rather than homogeneous.

Book Description
Shadow of the Swords is Book Two of The Ancient Bloodlines Trilogy John and Mistress Gwen are caught up in a deadly struggle for magical swords and control of the Holy Land. Who has the Power? It is the year 1113, and the fanatical Knights of The Order are again seeking to control Gwen and separate her from John. Shadow of the Swords continues the fast-moving tale of intrigue, adventure and romance that began in The Power in the Dark. The action shifts from quiet Wessex villages to Henry I's royal court, Stonehenge, a French nunnery and the Isle of Cyprus. Why is John called Gilles de Plantard, and what is his relationship to Gwen? And how are they linked to the Swords of Power that threaten the Crusaders' occupation of the Holy Land? In this world of fierce battles and enduring friendships, the young protagonists must grow up quickly as they are reluctantly thrust into positions of power and influence for which they are ill prepared.
